Yesterday, I cooked Lechon Kawali with renowned food writer, critic, and media personality Nancy Reyes-Lumen! It was my first time to have the honor to cook with her and we used the new Philips AirFryer.

Moreover, as a testament to the power of homemade food, Philips has partnered with Ms. Nancy Reyes-Lumen for a new collection of recipes made especially for home chefs.

Entitled “Healthy Choices, Delicious Results: Easy Recipes by Nancy Lumen”, the cookbook demonstrates how quick and easy preparing delicious and healthy home meals can be with the help of Philips Kitchen Appliances.

In the cookbook is a wide range of wholesome, healthy, delicious recipes personally prepared by Lumen. These include starters like Sushi Rice; entrées like Oil-less, Really Crispy Adobo Flakes; fixings like Lazy Girl’s Pad Thai; desserts like Queso de Bola Muffins; and drinks like Yakult-Strawberry Smoothie and Cucumber-Ginger-Mint Mojito.

“Nancy Lumen has a well-deserved reputation for being a terrific cook, food writer, and critic, as well as an advocate of good health through eating. For years, she’s helped home chefs take their cooking to the next level, all while promoting healthy, delicious home cuisine. Because our mission is to help people achieve a healthier and better life, teaming up with her thus makes perfect sense,” says RJ Buenaventura, General Manager for Consumer Lifestyle at Philips Philippines.

Philips Digital AirFryer & Philips Kitchen Appliances

Featured throughout the cookbook are Philips Kitchen Appliances that may be used in the preparation of the recipes, such as the Philips Food Processor, the Philips Digital Airfryer, and the Philips Electric Pressure Cooker, and the Philips Juicer, among others.

In particular, the Philips Airfryer’ which we used for cooking lechon kawali without cooking oil has a patented Rapid Air Technology lets home chefs prepare fried favorites with up to 80% less fat than conventional methods. It can also be used for roasting, grilling, and baking.

Home chefs who want to get slow-cooked taste at a fast-food pace can turn to the Philips Electric Pressure Cooker, which features a highly efficient design that retains all the flavor and nutrients in food, while giving that right amount of tenderness that everyone loves.

These appliances were also prominently featured in Nancy Lumen’s how-to web series that is now on YouTube, a collection of companion videos showcasing Nancy’s light and easy take on a number of family favorites ranging from pressure cooked meals and body-loving juices, to a healthier take on traditional favorites the above-mentioned lechon kawali.

At the launch of the cookbook, first-time cooks like me got to see for themselves how easy preparing delicious, nutritious food is with Philips Kitchen Appliances.

“These appliances are so simple to use, a first-timer could pick them up and get great-tasting meals from the get-go,” says Reah Ronsayro, Business Development Manager for Philips Domestic Appliances.

The kitchen appliances make the preparation of the recipes a stress-free affair, as the major steps in preparing each can be accomplished using just one or two of these gadgets.
